Mon, 16 Jul 2007 08:37:00 -0700 http://www.guruza.com/question/504/reward-5.00 I need help resolving a CSS issue. Take a look at: http://www.jacketflap.com/profile2.asp?member=bobba 1) View it in Firefox. As you'll see, the side_item DIV is overlapping the sectionheader DIV below it. I've tried applying a clear:right; to the sectionheader, but that bumps it down vertically below the height of the right column. That makes me think something may be unbalanced, but I can't find it. I tried changing the order of the div's in my document so that it's 1-left_column 2-center 3-right_column. Then, having a clear:right; on the sectionehader DIV drops it down below the side_item DIV as expected, but then the right column bumps down vertically below the height of the center column. Argh! How do I fix this? 2) View the same URL in Safari. For some reason, the side_item div is not floating to the right. How do I fix that? Thanks!

My host doesn't support replication (e.g. publishing). I'm primarily interested in doing this to allow me to failover to another server at another host if our site goes down.
